Stationery Office, York House, Kingswav London, W.C. 2 Fine Arts -\ TJ \.l PRINTED IN GREAT BRITAIN iT THE UNIVERSITY PRESS, OXFORD BY VIVIAN RIDLER PRINTER TO THE UNIVERSITY PREFACE The texts published in this volume have been copied by Mr. T. G. H. James, Assistant Keeper in the Department, who has also prepared the descriptions of the sculptures on which they are inscribed. They include all the material of their class dating from the Old Kingdom now in the possession of the Museum. Seventy-five of these texts were published in the First edition of Hieroglyphic Texts in the British Museum, Part I, a work which has been out of print for many years; eleven of the remainder were included in Part VI of the same publication, and twenty-four are published in this series for the first time. In the course of his re-collation of the published texts, Mr. James, with the aid of comparative material which was not available to his predecessors, has been able to add many new readings and to correct passages which had been misunderstood. Because of the palaeographic interest of Old Kingdom signs, which the standard hieroglyphic fount could not reproduce, the plates in this volume have been traced by hand from photographs and collated with the originals. Some of the sculptures have suffered from the action of salt, and in consequence hieroglyphic signs, which could be seen in the first decade of this century when the previous edition was pre- pared, have now crumbled away. It has been considered preferable to show, in these cases, only the text now visible. An innovation, which has been prompted by the time which must elapse before it will be possible to prepare complete indexes to this series, is the addition of indexes of the personal names and ofticial titles occurring in the texts published in this volume. I. E. S. EDWARDS Department of Egyptian Antiquities 2 March 1961 DESCRIPTION OF THE PLATES PLATE I 1. Relief of Z.--////^ (^Z^- 691 Material. Pinkish sandstone. Provenance. Wadi Magharah, Sinai. Dimensions. 0-33 m. /?., 0-41 m. w. Date. Third Dynasty. Presented by the Egypt Exploration Fund, 1905. Part of a tablet carved in rather rough, low relief. What remains shows the King Sanakhte, wearing the red crown of Lower Egypt, on the point of slaying a beduin; before the figure of the king is his name in a serekh and, farther to the right, the standard of Wepwawet. The figure of the god is now lost. Preservation. Fair; no colour remains. Bibliography. H.T. i', pi. 3; Porter and Moss, Top. Bibl. vn, p. 340; fkrny. Inscriptions of Sinai, ii, p. 56. 2. Panel of Rr-htp C^). 1242 Material. Limestone. Provenance. Meydum. Dimensions. 0-79 m. //., M7 m. u'. Date. Fourth Dynasty. Purchased 1898. Panel from the false door in the tomb of Rahotpe (see Petrie, Medum, pi. xiii). The deceased is shown seated on a simple, bull-legged, backless chair, one hand clasped on his chest and the other extended towards an offering-table carrying half- loaves of bread. The names of conventional oflFerings are written above the table and below it to one side of the stand. To the right of this scene is a standard offering- list of the early type. The name and titles of the deceased are written in larger signs on both sides of and above the main scene. The list contained in 1277 (Plate ii, 3) originally belonged to the same wall as this panel, see Petrie, loc. cit. The small panels 1273 and 1274 (Plate ii, 1 and 2) also come from the same tomb, cf. Petrie, op. cit., pi. xii. Preservation. The lower right-hand corner has been broken away from the main panel (now plastered back into position); otherwise the condition of the piece is excellent. The disappearance of almost all colour has revealed the full quality of the fine relief, in particular the details of the hieroglyphs. When copied by Petrie most of the colour existed; now there are traces only of black on the wig, of a yellowish -= brown on the flesh of the figure and on the hieroglyphs |^, ^, and in the top line. Originally Rahotpe was represented wearing a long leopard-skin garment. Bibliography. H.T. i^, pi. 20; Porter and Moss, Top. Bibl. iv, p. 91 ; Schafer and Andrae, Die Kunst des alien Orients, p. 235. PLATE II 1 and 2. Panels of Bw-nfr 1274, 1273 (J J, 3- 1274: Material. Limestone. Provenance. Meydum. Dimensions. 0-59 m. //., 0-58 m. w. Date. Fourth Dynasty. Purchased 1898. This panel, with its companion (1273), was originally set in front of the tomb of Rahotpe at Meydum. Both are carved with a single line of text in rather coarse rehef, containing the titles and name of Bunefer, a prince, otherwise unknown. In B.M. Guide (Sculpture), pp. 21-22, they are described as coming from Giza and were so assigned in Porter and Moss, Top. Bibl. in, p. 67. Meydum is, however, certain, cf. Petrie, Medum, pi. xii; also Porter and Moss, Top. Bibl. iv, p. 91. Preservation. The limestone is in good condition but some of the signs are damaged. The panel has been broken into a number of pieces, now rejoined. No colour remains. Bibliography. H.T. i\ pi. 28; Porter and Moss, Top. Bibl. in, p. 67 (see above), and iv, p. 91. 1273: Material Limestone. Provenance. Meydum. Dimensions. 0-61 m. //., 0-58 m. w. Date. Fourth Dynasty. Purchased 1898. A companion piece to 1274 above, q.v. Preservation. Good with the exception of the bottom left-hand corner which is lost; a few signs are damaged. No colour remains. Bibliography. H.T. i', pi. 28; Porter and Moss, Top. Bibl. in, p. 67 (!,ee above), and iv, p. 91. 3. Block from tomb of Rc-htp. Mil Material Limestone. Provenance. Meydum. Dimensions. 1-05 m. //., 0-63 m. u-., 0-22 m. thick. Date. Fourth Dynasty. Purchased 1898. This block formed part of the false door wall in the tomb of Rahotpe at Meydum to which the panel 1242 also belonged; cf. Petrie, Medum, pi. xiii, B.M. Guide (Sculpture), p. 19, says 'from Gizah' incorrectly. The upper part of the inscription contains the names of fifteen pieces of furniture which formed part of the funerary equipment of the tomb. At the bottom are the beginnings of three lines containing the names of sacred ointments. The left-hand side of the slab carries fragments of signs from which the title and name of the owner of the tomb can be read. The signs on this block are well carved with much detail, but are not quite as fine as those on the central panel 1242. Preservation. The surface and signs are well preserved but the edges of the block are damaged. No colour remains; there was clearly much colour preserved when the tomb was found, cf. Petrie, loc. cit. Bibliography. H.T. i', pi. 19; Mariette, Monuments divers, pi. 19; Petrie, Medum, pi. xiii; cf. Porter AND Moss, Top. Bibl. iv, p. 91. PLATE III Slabs from the tomb of Iry ([."iM^i) 1.

Panel carved in fine, low relief with a figure of Iry who is shown standing and holding a staff and sceptre: above the figure are two lines of text containing his name and titles. This slab with its three companion slabs 1168, 1170. and 1171 are described as coming from Giza in B.M. Guide (Sculpture), p. 13 f: H.T. i\ p. 9, says 'From the necropolis of Memphis'; Porter and Moss, Top. BihI. in, p. 203, says 'probably from Saqqara'. Preservation. Good. There is still much red paint on the body of Iry and on that of the hieroglyph f%^ ; the eyebrow and eye are outlined in black and the pupil is painted red. No other colour survives. Bibliography. H.T. i'. pi. 17; Portkr and Moss, Top. Bibl. in, p. 203. 2. Slab with figures of 7n- and Int (ji T). 1 171 Material. Limestone. Provenance. Uncertain. Dimensions. 0-71 m. //., 0-63 m. if. Date.

  • An Evaluation of Two Recent Theories Concerning the Narmer Palette1
    Eras Edition 8, November 2006 – http://www.arts.monash.edu.au/eras An Evaluation of Two Recent Theories Concerning the Narmer Palette1 Benjamin P. Suelzle (Monash University) Abstract: The Narmer Palette is one of the most significant and controversial of the decorated artefacts that have been recovered from the Egyptian Protodynastic period. This article evaluates the arguments of Alan R. Schulman and Jan Assmann, when these arguments dwell on the possible historicity of the palette’s decorative features. These two arguments shall be placed in a theoretical continuum. This continuum ranges from an almost total acceptance of the historical reality of the scenes depicted upon the Narmer Palette to an almost total rejection of an historical event or events that took place at the end of the Naqada IIIC1 period (3100-3000 BCE) and which could have formed the basis for the creation of the same scenes. I have adopted this methodological approach in order to establish whether the arguments of Assmann and Schulman have any theoretical similarities that can be used to locate more accurately the palette in its appropriate historical and ideological context. Five other decorated stone artefacts from the Protodynastic period will also be examined in order to provide historical comparisons between iconography from slightly earlier periods of Egyptian history and the scenes of royal violence found upon the Narmer Palette. Introduction and Methodology Artefacts of iconographical importance rarely survive intact into the present day. The Narmer Palette offers an illuminating opportunity to understand some of the ideological themes present during the political unification of Egypt at the end of the fourth millennium BCE.

  • The Origin of the Word Amen: Ancient Knowledge the Bible Has Never Told
    Ghana Journal of Linguistics 9.1: 72-96 (2020) ______________________________________________________________________________ http://dx.doi.org/10.4314/gjl.v9i1.4 EDITORIAL BOOK CRITIQUE: THE ORIGIN OF THE WORD AMEN: ANCIENT KNOWLEDGE THE BIBLE HAS NEVER TOLD Ọbádélé Bakari Kambon Editor-in-Chief Abstract: The Origin of the Word Amen: Ancient Knowledge the Bible has Never Told is a book that promises to pique the interest of any reader interested in classical Kmt ‘Black Nation/Land of the Blacks’, mdw nTr ‘Hieroglyphs,’ the Akan language, and historical-linguistic connections between the three. Specifically, the book promises to deliver information about how the word imn ‘Amen,’ as attested in classical Kmt ‘Black Nation/Land of the Blacks,’ persists in the contemporary Akan language. While under a steady hand this should be a simple enough thesis to substantiate, unfortunately, the authors’ obvious lack of grounding in historical linguistics, their lack of knowledge of mdw nTr ‘Hieroglyphs’ as well as their lack of understanding the morphology (word structure) of the Akan language all mar the analyses presented in the book. Keywords: Amen, Heru Narmer, historical linguistics, folk etymology Osei, O. K., Issa, J., & Faraji, S. (2020). The Origin of the Word Amen: Ancient Knowledge the Bible has Never Told. Long Beach, CA: Amen-Ra Theological Seminary Press. 1. Introduction In The Origin of the Word Amen: Ancient Knowledge the Bible has Never Told, what should be an open-and-shut case is saddled with a plethora of spurious look-alikes and folk etymologies prompted by attempts to analyze one language with another without actually having studying the language to be analyzed itself.

  • Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis
    Answers Research Journal 4 (2011):127–159. www.answersingenesis.org/arj/v4/ancient-egyptian-chronology-genesis.pdf Ancient Egyptian Chronology and the Book of Genesis Matt McClellan, [email protected] Abstract One of the most popular topics among young earth creationists and apologists is the relationship of the Bible with Ancient Egyptian chronology. Whether it concerns who the pharaoh of the Exodus was, the background of Joseph, or the identity of Shishak, many Christians (and non-Christians) have wondered how these two topics fit together. This paper deals with the question, “How does ancient Egyptian chronology correlate with the book of Genesis?” In answering this question it begins with an analysis of every Egyptian dynasty starting with the 12th Dynasty (this is where David Down places Moses) and goes back all the way to the so called “Dynasty 0.” After all the data is presented, this paper will look at the different possibilities that can be constructed concerning how long each of these dynasties lasted and how they relate to the biblical dates of the Great Flood, the Tower of Babel, and the Patriarchs. Keywords: Egypt, pharaoh, Patriarchs, chronology, Abraham, Joseph Introduction Kingdom) need to be revised. This is important During the past century some scholars have when considering the relationship between Egyptian proposed new ways of dating the events of ancient history and the Tower of Babel. The traditional dating history before c. 700 BC.1 In 1991 a book entitled of Ancient Egyptian chronology places its earliest Centuries of Darkness by Peter James and four of dynasties before the biblical dates of the Flood and his colleagues shook the very foundations of ancient confusion of the languages at Babel.
